Driving home from the David Cross show last night, I caught a bit of To the Point with Warren Olney. One of the guests opined that the recent suicide car bombings in Basra required an enormous amount of sophistication, because they occurred simultaneously.
My first thought was, "Ah, good point, expert number two. Right you are." My second thought was, "Wait, what exactly is required to achieve simultaneity? They would all need to have . . . wristwatches."
Cell Leader: OK, all set then? Good. Now, before -- *sigh* what is it, Abdullah? Abdullah: I'm sorry, I kind of drifted off there for a second. I didn't sleep well last night. Anyhoo, it's the big hand on the two, and the little hand on the twelve? The other way around? Of course it is. Stupid stupid stupid!
Is it wrong to joke about suicide bombings?

He's also based out of LA.
And no. Jokes about suicide bombings are a-okay.
